  1. New Zealand 32-10 South Africa

    Fair play. South Africa steal the ball back. But a clearing kick is then gobbled up.

    This Black Ferns side are ahead but they fight for absolutely everything. That is something that is not coachable but is in their DNA.

  3. New Zealand 32-10 South Africa

    New Zealand are 10 metres out. More points seem inevitable.

  4. New Zealand 32-10 South Africa

    Impressive stuff from South Africa's Maceala Samboya to somehow keep the ball in play, diving and passing the pill backwards all in one move.

    It doesn't amount to anything though as New Zealand then win a quick penalty on halfway. And that is probably the story of the match.

  5. New Zealand 32-10 South Africa

    Here's New Zealand's second try of the second half. The one that probably sealed this game.

  6. New Zealand 32-10 South Africa

    Better from South Africa. A bit of Springbok joy as the ball is stripped out of a New Zealand hand.

  7. New Zealand 32-10 South Africa

    New Zealand continue their dominance. They win themselves a penalty in a dangerous area.

  8. New Zealand 32-10 South Africa

    This has turned into a training match. The New Zealand players are allowing themselves to crack a smile. They were challenged in the first half. It's back to business as usual in the second.

    That just shows how much ability the New Zealand team does have. Even when the support lines are not adequate, they still manage to find a way.

    It's a rout. New Zealand pin South Africa back with an ace kick forward, and then a brilliant switch from right to left helps Kaipo Olsen-Baker go over for her second try.

    The wind dies down and Renee Holmes managed to loop over the match's first successful conversion.

    You can feel the vibe go out of the stadium from the neutrals. They all wanted a miracle.

    What we are seeing in the second half is New Zealand's creativity.

    It started with this girl, awesome Olsen-Baker.

    New Zealand are back!

    Kaipo Olsen-Baker breaks the line, a kick over the top from Maia Joseph then finds Braxton Sorensen-McGee who is held up before sending the ball back to Olsen-Baker who bundles over.

    The Black Ferns are in party mode. What a second half.

    The Black Ferns did what they do best and get the ball to the outside.

    Try - New Zealand 20-10 South Africa

    Braxton Sorensen-McGee

    Miller sets up Sorensen-McGee to leap over the line for her second try

    From one end to another! New Zealand are into their groove now as Jorja Miller offloads to teenager Braxton Sorensen-McGee who leaps over.

    Two tries so far today for breakout star of the tournament Sorensen-McGee. She got two hat-tricks during the pool stages. South Africa looked stunned.

  19. New Zealand 15-10 South Africa

    Siwan Lillicrap
    Former Wales captain on BBC Two

    Outstanding work. Holmes did well, she knew exactly where that try line was. That is exactly how the Black Ferns would have wanted to start that second half.

  20. New Zealand 15-10 South Africa

    New Zealand overplay it in their own zone. Jorja Miller throws the ball straight into touch.
